    My dwarf warrior got hit with Brains! in the second encounter of The Jewel of Alet Zhav. A second zombie then attempted to Zombie Mob him, which he duly blocked (using Block).

    Stun prevents the character playing all non-move cards. Does blocking not count, since it is a reaction? I guess blocks are not "played" in the same way that armour cards are not "played", but based on theme I found the fact that I was able to block the attack despite being stunned surprising.

    Edit: I hope the fact that I spelled "Attached" wrong in the thread title and can't change it makes Joe happy, given all the text errors I've been reporting :)

    Reaction based cards are not counted as played. Being under the influence of a stun wouldn't stop blocks, armor or the drawback of cards like Raging Strike.

    Okay, thanks. That's what I thought, it was just unexpected when it happened but it makes sense from a game mechanics point of view.
